Process
I went through a quick interview process with the hiring manager and two current QE employees over a period of four weeks.
The interviewers were extremely nice and willing to help out and answer any questions. I very much enjoyed going through the interview process with Palantir.
In general, they ask two types of questions:
- A simple technical question that addresses whether you know about basic data structures and are capable of adding to their current vocabulary and understanding.
- A testing question where they ask you to test a product (e.g., a vending machine).
